Ashers Baking Company’s legal challenge is set to be heard on 3 February by the Court of Appeal in Belfast.

The grounds for appeal include questioning whether the judge was correct in saying the bakery had discriminated on grounds of sexual orientation, religious belief or political opinion. It also questions whether the judge was right to refuse to grant the McArthur family’s belief protection under the European Convention on Human Rights.
